Feral

Villdyr

Hiderunners are wild animals that can take human form. They live among us in secrecy, while they fight for territories, power, and wilding – the ancient power that compels nature to obey them. Embla knows nothing of this. She has enough to deal with: a new school, an insufferable older sister, and parents who always interfere. When mysterious things start to happen around her, Embla discovers that she has a crucial role to play in the dangerous power struggle between the animal clans. Together with her new hiderunner friends, Embla soon finds herself braving a magical wilderness fraught with danger. She must uncover her true identity, before a dark order of owl witches can catch her in their razor-sharp talons.

“It’s a dash of “Nevermoor”, a touch of “Hunger Games”, but ultimately, it’s pure “Feral”.”

- Christine Lyngdal, former bookseller in charge of children's book, Barnebokbloggen.no
